Involvement of C3a and C5a in Interleukin-8 Secretion by Human Polymorphonuclear Cells in Response to Capsular Material of Cryptococcus neoformans

In a previous paper we demonstrated that human polymorphonuclear cells (PMN) in the presence of normal human serum (NHS) secrete proinflammatory cytokines in response to Cryptococcus neoformans or its major capsular component, glucuronoxylomannan (GXM). The hypothesis that activation of the compleme...
